Taylor Swift Lyrics
"Enchanted"
There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make its way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
The lingering question kept me up
2 AM, who do you love?
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake
And now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey
It was enchanting to meet you
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you."
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the storyline ends
My thoughts will echo your name
Until I see you again
These are the words I held back
As I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
(Please don't be in love with someone else)
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
(Please don't have somebody waiting on you)
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
(Please don't be in love with someone else)
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

Writer(s): Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift wrote the song in her hotel room after meeting a man in New York. He used the word "wonderstruck" once, and she put it in the lyrics so he would know who this song is about.
The word "wonderstruck" from these lyrics was used as a name of a fragrance made in partnership between Taylor Swift and Elizabeth Arden. The scent was released in October 2011. Soon after that she released another one called "Wonderstruck Enchanted".
Taylor Swift explained the meaning of this song's bridge, "I think my favorite part of is the part where, in the bridge, it goes to sort of a stream of consciousness of 'Please don't be in love with someone else/Please don't have somebody waiting on you'. Because at that moment, that's exactly what my thoughts were. And it feels good to write exactly what your thoughts were in a certain moment."
The name of this song could have been the title of the album as well. Big Machine Records president/CEO Scott Borchetta explained, "I'm like, 'Taylor, this record isn't about fairy tales and high school anymore. That's not where you're at. I don't think the record should be called Enchanted.' After the discussion [...] she had the Speak Now title, which comes closer to representing the evolution that the album represents in her career and in her still-young understanding of the world."
"Enchanted" wasn't released as a single but still it sold over 500,000 copies in USA alone and was certified Gold.
